Opening shots of the movie show Coldstream Guards matching with the military band in the lead.
The difficulty of establishing the location has been that the film was flipped horizontally. Stable Yard, London SW1. (RL)

From inside the arches of St James's Palace, London the Guards march by in Malborough Road, London. The next shot is of the arches, but are a studio set at Shepperton Studios, London as is the house within St James's Palace and this is where the rest of the movie is shot.

One final exterior shot is of the taxi, called by Miles (Nigel Patrick), as it turns from Pall Mall, London into Malborough Road, a junction that features in ‘Carry On Emmannuelle’, ‘Cat & Mouse’, ‘The Ballad of Tam Lin' and ‘The Sandwich Man’ The movie then returns to the set for the closing scenes.
The taxi is almost in the right place. (RL)
